Faith Power

The man in black robes fled and went to a secluded place in the wilderness.

He was seriously injured in this encounter with Guo Chen. He then took out a bottle of black potion and drank it down, which made his breathing much more stable.

"I will kill this meddlesome wretch afterward!" the man in black robes cursed.

He comes from the Abyss Church, who worship the Abyss Lord. They walk in the darkness and are not at odds with the orthodox major gods.

This time, they sacrificed the people of a small town in an attempt to summon the avatar of the Abyss Lord, but Guo Chen bumped into them.

After a fierce battle, which lasted all the way to Huang Feng Town, he was finally defeated.

"The Abyss Lord is the Orthodox God, and he will defeat these false gods and rule this world sooner or later!" the black-robed man muttered to himself.

Just then, he saw a young man dressed in a blue robe appear.

The young man seemed to have appeared out of thin air.

The man in black robes felt a chill run down his spine. "Who are you?"

Chen Wang didn't answer him, but instead asked curiously, "Who is this Abyss Lord you just mentioned?"

The man in black robes said coldly, "How dare you! How dare you offend the Abyss Lord!"

Chen Wang looked bewildered. "Did I offend you?"

The man in black robes coldly chanted an incantation. The next moment, a lot of black mist appeared around him, as if many white skeletal arms had crawled out from hell to drag Chen Wang down!

Dark Law Technique, Hell Hand! But the young man was unaffected. With a light stomp of his foot, all the skeletal arms beneath his feet shattered.

"I wasn't wrong about you; you really do have the feel of demonic Law Technique."

The black-robed man's expression changed, and he raised his hand, sending a plume of black smoke shooting straight towards Chen Wang's brow! But Chen Wang simply blew a breath, and the black smoke from the black-robed man shattered with a bang.

Not only that, the man in black robes was sent flying backwards, crashing into two large trees and breaking them in half, bleeding from all seven orifices.

He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his bones felt broken, and he looked up at the young man with a face full of terror.

Chen Wang approached him and said with a faint smile, "Your bloodthirsty aura has killed quite a few people, hasn't it? Let me see what's going on in your head."

Then, to the black-robed man's horrified gaze, Chen Wang placed his hand on it.

The man in black robes felt a terrifying aura erupt, and the next moment he was engulfed in excruciating pain! "Aaaaaaahhhhhh!"

The screams continued! He had previously sacrificed the people of a small town, and everyone in the town, regardless of age or gender, died tragically.

At that time, he possessed four swordsman-level puppets, and he coldly watched those ant-like mortals wail and scream.

He likes this feeling, otherwise he wouldn't be making offerings to the Abyss Lord.

But at that moment, he truly felt the fear of the townspeople as they faced death.

After Chen Wang retrieved all of his memories, the black-robed man who had just sacrificed himself to a small town died a gruesome death, his soul scattered.

"The Abyss Lord, the Dark Magician of the Abyss Church."

Chen Wang touched his chin, feeling a familiar sensation from him.

Some dark Law Technique were used to create puppets and control living people, which really resembled the demonic Law Technique he had learned.

However, the next moment, after the black-robed man died, a terrifying Qi Aura emanated from his body.

This is a cold-looking man, dressed in a long robe, half-real and half-illusory, with a terrifying aura emanating from him.

"You audacious mortal, how dare you kill my follower!"

The Abyss Lord maintains strict control over each believer, leaving a mark on their souls.

However, not every believer will appear when they die. The main reason is that this man in black robes just presided over a sacrificial ceremony and communicated with the master in the abyss.

"Kill him, so what?" Chen Wang said calmly.

Then, he curiously examined the Abyss Lord.

The Abyss Lord's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he sneered coldly, "He's just a mortal, how dare you!"

Immediately, a black aura rushed over and directly entered Chen Wang's brow! Chen Wang's brow erupted with Divine Sense, transforming into a cage that imprisoned the black aura!

The black aura darted left and right, but could not break through, and manifested its form within the cage.

His eyes showed some surprise.

"Who exactly are you?"

Chen Wang blinked. "The incarnation of the God of Light, the existence of the abyss is absolutely forbidden under the light!"

The Abyss Lord was merely a projection, not even an avatar or clone, and was somewhat surprised to hear this.

An incarnation of the God of Light?

His face immediately darkened. "You're really good at talking nonsense!"

He had dealt with the God of Light before, and this was definitely not his aura.

The aura emanating from this person was unlike that of any of the main gods he had ever seen.

"You're not stupid."

Chen Wang said with some surprise.

Then, with a wave of his hand, the cage of mental energy transformed into flames, and the mental fire burned fiercely, instantly killing the projection.

"It seems that these gods really do exist in this world, and their connections are very close," Chen Wang muttered to himself.

It was merely a trace of power exerted through the other party's soul imprint; the Abyss Lord's realm could not yet be determined.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Wang searched the body of the man in black robes and retrieved the items from it.

He maintained a good habit of killing and robbing, even though he didn't need most of the things the man had.

He then turned and left.

In Huang Feng Town, Feng Ling saw Chen Wang return and asked, "Where did you go just now?"

Chen Wang smiled faintly, "To rid the people of harm and to act on behalf of Heaven."

Feng Ling said irritably, "You're lying!"

Chen Wang said, "I just saw a beautiful female mercenary, with big breasts and a curvy bottom. I went up to her and chatted with her for a bit."

Feng Ling rolled her eyes. "I knew you were a big pervert, you were out flirting with women again!"

Chen Wang: "..."

Does she have any doubts about my character?

After returning, Chen Wang sorted through the memories in his mind.

There are many dark magic Law Technique, including the Hell Hand just now, and the ability to create puppets.

The man was a mage, but he had only just entered this realm and his mastery of Law Technique was still insufficient.

Dark Law Technique is extremely powerful, and necromancy has a bad reputation, but in reality, it is often the dark magic that does the work.

Necromancy often involves controlling the dead, while dark Law Technique can turn the living into the dead, making it both evil and cruel.

Moreover, cultivating dark Law Technique requires dedicating one's entire being—body, mind, and soul—to a dark being, such as the Abyss Lord whom he chose to worship.

"In other words, to become a dark mage, one must become a puppet or lackey existing in the abyss."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.

He had previously read the notes of the Grand Magister Dan Dong, which stated that those who cultivate the necromancy system only need to believe in the Death God and do not need to sell their souls.

"These beings in the abyss really know how to do business. How disgusting."

Chen Wang thought of it.

The notes of the Grand Magister Dan Dong only record these Law Technique and notes his insights; it would be more direct to search for the soul of a dark mage.

Chen Wang finally found something that interested him: the Faith Power.

The gods of this world are empowered by the Faith Power of mortals; the stronger the Faith Power, the stronger their power.

The Abyss Lord's method of collecting faith is rather extreme.

To be precise, their Faith Power; they rely more on believers killing people and offering them pure souls as a form of nourishment.

The one who truly mastered the power of faith was the God of Light. He had many churches in this place, far more than any other god of earth, fire, or water.

"If I can learn this, wouldn't I be able to continuously collect Faith Power by establishing my own belief system in the Winter and the Great Chu Dynasty?"

As Chen Wang thought of this, a sudden surge of excitement welled up in his heart.

But how easy is it to achieve this?

Moreover, it remains to be seen whether this method is universally applicable across different worlds.

This method cannot be learned from ordinary people; even the high-ranking members of the Church are merely vessels for the Faith Power.

"I still need to be careful. Faith Power is the bottom line for all Church. It's easy to be regarded as a demon and put into the ranks of the Abyss Lord. Then the Abyss won't tolerate me either!" Chen Wang thought to himself.

Then they left Huang Feng Town.

Chen Wang had been studying these necromancy and dark magic.

The Dark Magician had thoughts about faith and the sacrifice of souls in his mind.

Others felt that this method of soul sacrifice was not orthodox and that the Church was evil, but Chen Wang thought it was a good idea.

Only in this way can a large number of loyal followers be gained and initial capital be accumulated quickly.

On the Whispering Plains, the fiery red unicorn sped along without human control, as no one was driving it.

Qiu Yue Hong Xiu were both meditating, while Feng Ling stared longingly at Chen Wang, holding the Berserk Giant Bear known for its savagery in her arms.

Chen Wang tried to deduce the method of gathering the Faith Power from these clues and learn the means of sacrificing souls.

However, this matter is not simple; it requires a lot of effort and a constant search for samples.

Hong Xiu practiced the Azure Origin Sword Art, while Qiu Yue practiced the Profound Ice Force.

Ice is a mutated attribute and is extremely rare.

There's no inherent superiority or inferiority between different attributes, except that ice attributes have slightly higher attack power.

The two of them were cultivating together at this time.

The aura surrounding Hong Xiu was no longer the fiery energy of the Phoenix Sword Art, but rather a cool and refreshing feeling.

The aura around Qiu Yue was much colder; anyone who got close to her would shiver involuntarily, feeling the chill seep into their body.

Feng Ling tugged at Chen Wang's sleeve and whispered, "Are you really not going to consider teaching me?"

Chen Wang said with a smile, "Let's see how you do."

Feng Ling's eyes lit up. "What was his performance?"

Chen Wang blinked.

"Didn't you see it that day?"

Feng Ling blushed instantly and spat at Chen Wang.

Chen Wang's head was throbbing from all the mental calculations, so he decided to change his mood and flirt with the hot girl.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Chen Wang's voice was like a seductive demon. "You know, I really like the leather armor you're wearing. It really shows off your figure. If you perform well, I might teach you something even more powerful."

Feng Ling's face turned even redder, and her ears burned.

Her leather armor wasn't actually very tight; some skin was still showing above her thighs, which was typical of female warriors.

When she heard Chen Wang say that, she suddenly felt as if his thieving eyes had seen right through her.

Feng Ling whispered, "You're such a jerk!"

Perhaps if Chen Wang had forced her, she would have accepted it half-heartedly, but this bastard insisted on making her take the initiative!

Feng Ling was very shy, and at this moment she was in a carriage, with Hong Xiu and Qiu Yue meditating beside her. No one knew when the two of them would wake up.

Feng Ling turned her head away and stopped talking, but her heart was pounding.

The ferocious giant bear she held in her arms was highly intelligent.

"This girl's heart is beating so fast, she's clearly smitten. Oh dear, her skin is so hot!"

"Shouldn't mating with such a powerful individual be a very enjoyable experience? Why is she calling him a bastard?"

The Berserk Giant Bear couldn't understand these humans.

Feng Ling's heart was pounding, but Chen Wang didn't bring it up again and continued to ponder.

During this period, Hong Xiu and Qiu Yue's cultivation levels improved by leaps and bounds, and Qiu Yue was often held in Chen Wang's arms and his acupoints were pointed out.

Watching this aloof beauty biting her lip, Chen Wang couldn't help but find it amusing; it was a welcome change of pace on his cultivation journey.

Under Chen Wang's skillful manipulation, Qiu Yue's resistance to Chen Wang was not as strong as before.

Hong Xiu often served Chen Wang in bed.

In such a short time, she has already shown signs of breaking through her cultivation level.

Every time she finished serving Chen Wang in bed, she felt that her skin became more and more delicate, and her whole body was radiant.

When she arrived at Chen Wang's Chen Wang that day, she heard a faint groan coming from inside.

Qiu Yue, this aloof and beautiful woman, was biting her lip tightly. Her legs were being carried on Chen Wang's shoulders, and she was lying on the table.

Hong Xiu blushed and said, "I... I came at the wrong time."

Just as she was about to leave, Chen Wang smiled and waved to her.

"No, you've come at just the right time."

Qiu Yue whispered, "You're such a bastard!"

Chen Wang laughed heartily.

The group finally arrived at Mo Tie City.

Mo Tie City is a large city with hundreds of thousands of inhabitants. It has churches of various Church and Mages Guild.

Chen Wang originally wanted to see the various Law Technique, but now he was interested in the Faith Power in the gods behind these Church.

Upon arriving in Mo Tie City, Chen Wang said, "Now that we've arrived in Mo Tie City, I won't restrict your freedom. Those who wish to leave can go."

He looked at the magnificent churches and felt a sense of joy.

But now, none of the three women are willing to leave.

Chen Wang turned around and said with a smile, "What, are you addicted to being a female slave?"

All three women blushed.

Feng Ling pouted and said, "See? I told you he's a jerk, fickle and easily bored. He must think there are prettier women in this city and wants to leave us behind."

Hong Xiu smiled charmingly, and Qiu Yue did not make sarcastic remarks as before.

Feng Ling made a few complaints, but found no one responding and felt rather bored.

Chen Wang turned around. "What, who's leaving?"

Feng Ling has been getting angry for no reason lately, and she snorted, "I'm not leaving. I'll just wander around in Mo Tie City."

Chen Wang nodded, "That's good. Let's go to the Feng Family's hotel; that way we won't have to spend any money."

Feng Ling: "..."

That bastard!
